    Brent's like that guy Morrie in "Goodfellas": He talks so much, no one cares what he's saying.

    My favorite part was declaring a TD by that Oregon WR following the great one-handed catch. Dude was dragged down at the five and Oregon never scored. But apparently, Musberger called a 26-26 game.

    So Jim Nantz is Ray Liotta, and Neal Pilson is De Niro?

    "Think Brent tells his wife everything?"
    "Brent?"
    That's when I knew: Pilson was going to whack Brent at the Final Four. That's how it happens.

    He also uses the smile lighting up a place line fairly often. Well, at least every 30 years:

    Musberger is an all-timer. Love when he calls the big games, despite the reasons why some of you think he sucks. Just feels like a big game when he's calling it.

    You're looking LIVE at SJ dot com, where people aren't happy unless they're complaining about something.

    If broadcasters had to live up to SJ standards to keep their jobs, there would be like two broadcasters in the world.

    I've never heard a bad word said about Dan Shulman. The world would be a happier place if he could be cloned and be the pxp man for all games. I love him on college basketball.

    For the record, I am anti cloning of television broadcasters. Some people like Digger Phelps and Dick Vitale.
